Perfumes and colognes are available for retail sale in Decatur. Perfumes are a mixture of aromatic oils and solvents that, when applied on the body, leave a pleasant, lingering smell. A eau de colgne is a toiletry, usually a scented formulation with 2-5% essential oils. Presently, it is a formulation with a blend of extracts, alcohol, and water. It is marketed for men as an alternative to perfumes, and is used after shaving to clean, disinfect, and perfume the area. The smells of both can vary widely, depending on the extracts and oils incorporated into it. Both perfumes and colognes usually come in ornamental glass bottles or vials. Decatur retail outlets have them in a large variety, both with respect to smell and notes, as well as prices. Some popular perfume brands include Chanel, Dunhill, Boss, Burberry, Davidoff, Estee Lauder, Nina Ricci, Dolce and Gabbana and Elizabeth Arden.
